Black Star Mantra

An instrumental quartet from Warsaw playing modern metal, led by guitarist and composer Piotr Michalski. In 2022, they debuted with the album Hourglass, which, despite drawing on the palette of djent and prog metal, went far beyond the sound expected from these labels; echoes of classic groove metal can be heard in their music, with broken riffs and a rhythm section with the force of a bulldozer.
